Moody Florals with Mint Julep Boutique

March 31, 2017

Moody Florals with Mint Julep Boutique Hello, loves!
Today, I’ve partnered with an awesome online store called Mint Julep Boutique to share one of their gorgeous floral maxi dresses! They have SO many cute maxis on the site right now, it was difficult to choose, and I already want more of them in my closet! This one is called Peaceful Paradise, which I think is quite apt for a dress this pretty. One thing I will say, is that I found the background of the dress to be black, not navy, as stated on their website. I could be imagining things, but my photographer and boyfriend agreed with me! I wore it with a light denim jacket to ward off the chill that’s been hitting us recently when the evening rolls around. For accessories, I paired my new espadrille wedges (hello, 90’s shoutout!), a stack of glimmering gold bangles and my favorite crystal necklace.
I’m also loving the look of the Garden Stroll, the Visions in Bloom, the Living Fantasies, the Beauty Abounds, and the Happy to Bloom maxis. Like I said, they have SO many cute options to choose from right now! Be sure to sign up for their emails, so you can get $10 off your first purchase! The dresses are already very reasonably priced, so this is just the cherry on top. Keep scrolling to see the full look, I hope you enjoy it!

Crisscross Florals with I Shop Simply

March 21, 2017

Crisscross Florals with I Shop SimplyHello, my loves!
It is so freaking beautiful outside today, and I’ve got all of the sliders and windows open, letting the subtle breeze roll in. I asked for just a little bit more warm weather and it seems that my wish has been granted! All the better for me to continue rocking these gorgeous floral tops and dresses that I’ve been living in for the past month.
I’m one of those people who could wear floral prints year-round, but there’s just something that feels extra special and feminine about wearing them in spring. Today being the first day of this flower-filled season, it seemed even more appropriate to share this fun and casual outfit. The top is from I Shop Simply, one of my favorite online boutiques. Their philosophy is something I can totally get behind.. Curating the most adorable, yet unfussy items and offering them up for crazygood deals. This top is only $25! I’ve purchased several other basics from them, as well as some of-the-moment pieces, and I’ve found the quality to be on-par with things I’ve paid 3x as much for!
I Shop Simply has been so great to offer all of my subscribers and followers 15% off when using the code “dressedfortime” at checkout! That’s even more savings on these lovely tops, dresses, basics, and bottoms. I’ve currently got my eye on the Summer top and the Rhonda’s Roses dress. Both are perfect for wearing through spring and summer. Happy shopping!

Spring Trends with Maggy London

March 18, 2017

Spring Trends with Maggy LondonHello, dears!
I’m so excited to bring you another post sponsored by Maggy London! They sent me this gorgeous dress (the Stephani) to share with all of you. One of my favorite things about it, along with the very flattering, curve-hugging shape, is the midi length. It’s super on-trend for spring, and versatile enough that you’re not stuck wearing it to only casual or formal events. I’ve styled it two ways here, one look perfect for going out (hello, date night!), the other is something I would totally wear to work, perhaps with a little sweater thrown over my arms to ward off that office chill.
On the note of spring trends, I must confess that I’m going a bit crazy over all of the lovely ones that are coming out right now. I wanted to talk about a few of my faves, and the standout ways to incorporate them into your daily wardrobe.
First, is embroidery. Embroidery really started gaining momentum in the second half of last year, and I don’t see it slowing down anytime soon! My favorite ways to incorporate it are in small doses. A little on the collar of a blouse, on the back pocket of a pair of jeans, or even on pretty embroidered patches sewn on to a jean jacket.
You can’t have spring without pastels, and I’m not sure which is my favorite at the moment! From Tiffany blue to canary yellow, from pale pink to celadon, I’m not ruling anything out! I love to pair a pastel mani with a darker version of the color on my toes, like a sky blue and navy, to keep the effect from looking too cutesy. You can never go wrong with pairing a floaty pastel blouse with white jeans and espadrilles, it’s kind a no-brainer spring look!
I keep seeing shoes (think flats, not heels) with bows on them, and I’m obsessed. Other footwear trends I’m currently coveting are cutouts (like both of the pairs I’m wearing in these looks!), dove grey suede, bold pops of color paired with an otherwise neutral look, like an all-white ensemble, and espadrille wedges.
As for jewelry, I’m still loving chokers, but have been gravitating towards less severe styles. A delicate gold choker paired with a couple of longer beaded strands is totally up my alley. Layered and wrap bracelets and still topping my list for wristwear, along with little gold rings and midi rings with and without crystals so that your hands catch the light when you talk with them (which I so frequently do!)
I’d love to hear what some of your favorite trends for spring are… Which prints and colors are grabbing your eye this season?
As a treat for all of my subscribers, Maggy London has been gracious enough to give away this dress to one lucky winner! Go to my Instagram and look for the giveaway picture for details on how to enter! The contest will be going until 8PM PST on March 23rd.

Garnet Floral Maxi with Perfectly Priscilla

March 16, 2017

Garnet Floral Maxi with Perfectly Priscilla

Hello, loves!
With the weather quickly taking a turn from chilly to, well, perfect, I thought it would be a great time to share my favorite in-between piece.. The maxi dress! With or without sleeves, they work with layering items like a denim jacket or loose cardigan. They transition seamlessly from work to drinks to a movie date. For this particular moody floral number, I could fancy it up a bit and swap out the “self-belt” for a metallic version, swap the sandals for dressy wedges, and throw on a blingy gold choker for some drama.
I’ve been loving the maxi dress section at Perfectly Priscilla boutique lately, because not only are they constantly updating it with super cute styles, but they’re all very reasonable, with the priciest option topping out at $60! This exact dress I’m wearing is sold out, (I can see why!), but I’m kind of obsessed with the Tonight’s the Night and I Put a Spell on You styles. Neither are too spring-y, so they’ll take you all the way through summer with ease. Perfectly Priscilla is a plus-size retailer, and I’m wearing a size 12/14 here. I’m between a 12 and 14 anyway, so this was a perfect fit!
Perfectly Priscilla was kind enough to offer all of my followers a discount for purchasing anything on the site! Take 15% off when you check out using code “KRISTIN15”. Comment below with your favorite maxi on the site, I’d love to hear!
